Divorced. Beheaded. Died. Divorced. Beheaded. Survived.
Smash-hit musical SIX The Musical has captivated audiences around the globe with its innovative and empowering take on history.
Since its premiere in 2017, it has become a cultural phenomenon, redefining the boundaries of musical theater and engaging audiences of all ages.
And now – finally – it is on its way to Shanghai!
SIX The Musical tells a gripping story of the six wives of King Henry VIII, who step out of the shadow of their infamous husband and reclaim their own narratives.
From Tudor Queens to Pop Stars, they take to the mic, strut their stuff, and rewrite their trauma in this unmissable show packed full of catchy songs and empowering messages, inspiring audiences to embrace their own strength and celebrate girl power.
The sensational tunes, cleverly crafted lyrics, and infectious energy of the show all contribute to this must-see HER-story piece, bridging the past and the present and helping it win international recognition.
Created by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, SIX The Musical first opened at Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017 and soon became a smash hit in both UK and worldwide, attracting more than 3.5 million people all over the world each year.
SIX redefines the boundaries of musical theatre and utilizes a groundbreaking combination of history and pop rock music, engaging audiences of all ages and becoming a global cultural phenomenon.
It not only continually plays to sold out houses in London and on its record-breaking UK tour, but also takes theatreland by storm all over the world.
Just as its lyrics saying 'one of a kind, no category,' SIX retells the history from a feminist perspective, illumining your knowledge of musical theatre.
To date, the critically acclaimed musical has won 35 international awards, including two Tony Awards.
In addition to its huge success in theaters, SIX The Musical Studio Cast Recording has risen to the top of the charts, right after Hamilton, receiving a Grammy nomination for Best Musical Theater Album, and having been streamed over 500 million times on Spotify.
If you haven't heard the songs yet, or simply want to get in the mood, stick it on and crank up the volume!
The original production of SIX The Musical will come to China for the very first time next year, and will currently only be shown here in Shanghai. Welcome to the histo-remix!
